Buddha Park - Fusion Philosophy


Buddha Park is the vision of a Hindu Buddhist fusion philosophy of Luang Pu Bunleua Sulilat, and materialised in 1958 near Vientiane. It’s a rough sculpture garden filled with unusual sculptures from Buddhist and Hindu Pantheons. Bunleua Sulilat moved across the Mekong into Thailand following the communist takeover of Laos in 1975.  He then built a similar park in Thailand called Sala Keoku.

This video from geobeats gives a snippet of what this park looks like.
